I bought a set of ARP wavelock conrod bolts to install in my 5.0 before I swap it in. RIght now I have the engine on the stand, valve covers and oilpan off. Will it be ok if I just unbolt each cap one at a time and replace the stock bolts with the ARP ones, and just retorque???
A guy told me that once I break that seal, I'll have problems, any truth to that?
The heads are still on, I have no need to remove them, the engine is in great shape being a '95 with only 45,000miles.
Anothet thing... I pulled the 250 yesterday and had a very hard time getting out some of the bellhousing to engine bolts. Is it going to be hell again when it's time to go back up? Any tricks for this?
thanks,
Inshan
